My baby has been sleeping face down. I put her to bed on her back but this is how she ends up. It scares me so much! Does anyone else's baby do this?

Question

Answer

As soon as my little girl could roll over, she started rolling on her belly to fall asleep. All of the other babies in her daycare that are old enough to roll over do the same. It scared me to death the first week, but we have nothing else in the crib with her and every time I would flip her over to her back, she would cry and roll over to her belly again 🙄 now I get to giggle at her funny sleeping poses.

Answer

Yes mine does the same! The moment I put him to bed he would keep his face down. I know it's scary but as long as they can roll I think it's fine

Answer

Mine does that too💙💙

Answer

Mine did that when he first started putting himself on his belly to sleep. Just make sure there's nothing on the mattress but a sheet. I used to have a waterproof mattress pad on there but when he started going facedown I took it off. I felt like an airhead for not realizing that the mattress pad counted as extra bedding. I say this because it looks like maybe you do too with the way the light hits the sheet in your picture, I think I see the stitching pattern of one under the sheet. It's hard to tell.

Answer

If she can move her head side to side, and roll both ways she is fine. If not you can get the thing that has where it blocks her from rolling over. I didn't let my sknevdo it till 5 months when he could move his head side to side.

Answer

Mine does. If she can roll herself over she should be fine. It when they are really small that it's most dangerous.
